Jpo1933: Offer Shimizu Ken Nosaka Namamigaki Kyusu 170ml

[jpo1933]

Hi all!
After thinking about it for some time, I've decided to put this one up for sale.
I don't know what it is about Nosaka clay, but despite whatever pairing I try(Sencha, roasting oolongs, etc etc) nothing seems to come out to my liking.
I know the clay is popular with many people, so it may be just due to my vulgar untrained palate

The teapot is in almost perfect condition aside from some tea staining(3rd photo) located in the spout. Should be easy to get off with some boiling water or baking soda.
Made by the late Shimizu Ken. Oxidized firing with namamigaki (170ml)
Looking for 135+Shipping

Thank you for your time~

Could you take a filter shot if not already packaged? Not committing, just curious.

Yup!

Sorry for the lightning x.x.
It's a typical doake filter, 19 holes.
Very clean quick pouring. I think the pour is a bit better even than the Hokujo I bought last year even.

Thanks for the filter shot jpo. It looks really good to me! I've just been picking up one too many pots as of late. Otherwise, I'd snatch it right up!
